Chapter 1673: Chapter 1686: The Second Personality Reappears

"Damn, messing around with me for no reason. Talking about hair, why don’t you say it’s Xiaoliu... Wait, why do I feel something’s off?" Lin Mu raised an eyebrow, discovering the scene felt eerily familiar. However, just when he felt something was wrong and prepared to stand up, a muffled thud rang out beside him, followed by a sudden darkness as Lin Mu crashed headfirst to the ground.

"Bloody hell, got blindsided again!" Lin Mu’s bitter resentment seemed to seep through the entire sky.

"Quit pretending, just open your eyes when you wake up. Don’t you want to see me?"

A soft, soothing voice arose next to him, tender and sweet, echoing in his ears, sinking into his heart, making him feel nothing but comfort. Yet at this moment, Lin Mu missed Sophie’s cooler yet slightly arrogant tone.

"Seems like last time wasn’t a dream at all; it was you playing tricks, using some technique to wipe my memory."

With a sigh, he opened his eyes and indeed saw the smiling second persona. Her sleek, long hair was tightly pinned up with a black hair clip, an elegant black vintage dress adorned with silver lace tracing her curves exquisitely. If Sophie was perceived as cool and stunning, the second persona before him felt mysterious, like a serene forest or a medieval castle, exuding a dark and Gothic charm.

"Wow, you spotted that, Lin Mu, you’re pretty smart!"

"...Are you complimenting me?" Lin Mu rolled his eyes.

"Of course, didn’t you hear it?" Sophie blinked innocently.

"Honestly, I really didn’t hear it."

Lin Mu moved slightly; as expected, his hands and feet were bound by incredibly strong cowhide bands soaked in unknown secret techniques. He shook his head in defeat and gave up struggling, chuckling wryly: "I’m curious where you got these bizarre objects?"

"A secret, I’m not telling you."

Sophie smirked, laughing like a sly little fox spirit.

Sophie stretched out her pale fingers, gently yet teasingly brushed Lin Mu’s cheek.

Her fingertips were slightly chilly, so soft and pleasant, carrying a seductive scent. Lin Mu swallowed hard, suppressing his burgeoning desires, saying, "Aren’t you all one person, what’s the difference?"

"There’s surely a difference."

With dreamy, alluring eyes, Sophie leaned down, got close to Lin Mu, and gently nibbled his earlobe, whispering sweetly like talking in a dream, "Don’t you find me more intriguing, better at serving you than her?"

"Damn it, really can’t take this..."

Shivers ran through Lin Mu, his blood boiling, cells nearly exploding.

This was stark naked seduction—no, stark naked temptation—without any regard for boundaries.

"If you had a chance to choose between us, would you pick me or her?"

Breathing soft as orchids, Sophie’s charm was like the gentleness of spring water.

"Of course, I’d want both. Cold and noble by day, soft and alluring at night, that’s what makes for a superb wife choice. How about you two merge, so you’re not swapping back and forth all the time?"

"It’ll happen eventually, but not yet. She’s too naturally proud and cold, with a powerful aura, so I..."

Here, Sophie suddenly laughed so hard, like a flower shaking in the wind, tears rolling from her eyes. After a good while, she straightened up, seemingly piqued, tweaking Lin Mu, "You’re awful, you tricked me into talking!"

"Uh!" Lin Mu twitched his mouth. The second persona’s intellect was terrifyingly high; she saw through his intentions just as he opened up the conversation. Damn it, can’t a man even live in peace? With a sigh, just about to speak, he saw Sophie wave her hand and magically produce a half-foot-long silver needle. Lin Mu shivered, his face turning pale, "Sis, can’t we talk this over? Don’t use that thing to poke me, it really hurts!"

"Be good, don’t be afraid, it’ll only hurt a bit."

Sophie, smiling, unbuttoned Lin Mu’s shirt while constantly comforting him: "I promise it won’t hurt much."

"You’re lying through your teeth, if you dare, let me stab you a couple of times to try!"

Cold sweat drenched Lin Mu’s face, he struggled but to no avail; he could only widen his eyes, full of heroic resolve saying, "I refuse to submit, don’t dream of achieving your goals using last time’s methods!"

"Wishful thinking, last time was unavoidable, allowing you to enjoy yourself for half a day. But this time..."

Sofie flicked her wrist, the silver needle pierced Lin Mu’s skin, stuck into an artery. As her tiny hand twisted it, Lin Mu clearly felt the bodily changes. His already rapidly flowing blood accelerated even more, within his chest the pressure kept increasing, "Thump, thump, thump," with each set of three rapid heartbeats, a drop of vital heart blood was drawn into the artery, then scooped up by the silver needle, reversed into Sophie’s mouth.

Was this the legendary "the cleverer a devil, the cleverer the monk"?

Looking at the little "vampire" atop him, Lin Mu’s mouth filled with bitterness, his face paled.

No wonder in the past two days, he kept getting nosebleeds, no wonder his heart rate remained at an unnaturally high frequency... Thinking back now, all this pointed to the second persona’s advance manipulations, aiming to keep his body in an excited state, making it effortless when extracting his heart blood, without needing the silver needle to penetrate muscle.

That heartless snake-like woman, she practically... has no professional ethics.

People who donate blood at least get two eggs and a packet of milk; yet you, simply stabbed right in!

At least do what you did last time, give a little sweetness, let me relax, warm up before proceeding.

While Lin Mu’s grievances floated about, Sophie stopped sucking, pulled out the silver needle, exhaled deeply, visibly transformed. Her already beautiful face became radiant, milk-white skin shimmered with a delicate luster, her eyes flowed with a mesmerizing allure, exceeding how attractive she was moments ago!
